Hi!
I've been reading the board for a while now and decided to show you guys my project which i'm quite satisfied with at the moment. The only thing that bothers me at the moment is the pedals. I have some spd's lying around and i like riding with them, but on the other hand i don't like the inconvenience of carrying around an extra pair of shoes. However the flat/strap combo i'm riding at the moment doesn't please my eye and in the (hopefully) near future i'll be swapping them for some other kind of pedals.
First a few shots from different stages. The oldest and the first setup is from about a year ago:
..and then a few shot's of how it looks now.
Feel free to comment and check out my pedalroom profile for my other bikes (link below)

Broke my ankle last spring so it was a good excuse to get rid of my old Ridley. Not that there was anything wrong with it, but it just constantly felt that i wanted something new. Now that my ankle is starting to get better i started looking for new frames, steel frames, to be more precise. I found this Samson on the forum (Thanks Kobe) and started figuring out the parts in my head and built up something pretty basic. Pretty soon i realized it felt a bit boring and it was "just a bike". For some reason the urge for an hhsb-whip got pretty serious so this is what i came up with. One more part is still on it's way but i'll post some new pics when i get it installed.
